Clegg Exposed as Liar and Fraud
====================
Shown the Lib Dem pamphlet promising “a real referendum,” Clegg was asked –
“Do you recognise this poster, Nick? I’d like to know why you went back on this one and why you think we should trust you again now you are in power.”
But the DPM insisted that his referendum promise had related only to an in/out vote at the time of a treaty transferring power from Westminster to Brussels.

And the treaty went through. And now Clegg is Deputy Prime Minister, and refuses to act on that pledge. Instead he dangles his deceit before the electorate, yet again –
“I believe in that so much that, shortly after I entered into this coalition Government in 2010, we legislated to create for the first time in this country a legal guarantee that when there’s another treaty we’ll do exactly what I said on that leaflet, which is that we will have an in/out referendum…”
And the next time?

CIB and other groups held a demonstration outside the Lib-Dem HQ on the day when Lib-Dem peers ratted on their referendum promise and let through the Lisbon Treaty Bill. Clegg cannot duck responsibility for that. Of course, cross bench peers, including the ultra Europhile Lords Spiritual ( the bench of Church of England bishops) plus the EU’s payroll vote of former Commissioners, former Commission employees and former Foreign Office flunkeys to the EU all helped. The noble Lords were all vigorously canvassed by Baroness Ashton. Her reward for persuading their lordships to commit this deed of bad faith and betrayal was to become “High Representative” of the EU at an enormous salary and pension – not bad for someone whose only previous elected office was as treasurer of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament in the days when it was heavily funded by the Communist party and fellow travelling “peace” groups to undermine our country’s defences.
